Unable to use Omnia with Virgin Media cable router in Modem Mode

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your help. The problem was indeed that I needed to reboot the Virgin Media box (set into Modem mode) after connecting the Turris - the person who speculated that it only gives out one DHCP address was probably right. So now it’s all working nicely :slight_smile:

So for anyone else with this problem:

  • Switch off the Omnia
  • Unplug all Ethernet cables from your VM box except the Omnia (into the Modem mode port)
  • Connect to VM box wifi or via Ethernet and use web interface to switch it to Modem mode
  • Watch it reboot
  • Wait until it has finished and the lights calm down
  • Power on the Omnia
  • Wait until it has fully booted
  • Check that you can access the Internet via a cable plugged into the Omnia
